Geocache Description:

In the spring of 1884, Alfred A. Mullin staked out the town of Mullinville.  He was a twenty-five year old man from Chicago.  He built a store which was the first place of business in Mullinville.  It also served as the post office and meeting place for Sunday School.

On April 13, 1887, Mullinville was incorporated as a third-class city. Later that year, the first Santa Fe passenger train pulled into town. The Mullinville Grade School was built in 1911-12, followed by the Mullinville Rural High School in 1919.  The Mullinville Volunteer Fire Department was established by a city ordinance on July 31, 1924.  The first pieces of fire fighting equipment were two hand-drawn hose wagons. A fire truck was later added.  Washington Park was opened in June of 1939. City water and sewer utilities were established in the 1950’s and 1960’s. Street curbs and guttering were added in 1966.
